ugh.

I'm such a blogging disappointment. Blogger disappointment? Disappointing blogger?

I suck.

I want to be better.

At blogging.

And other stuff too.

Here's a list of things I currently love about being Henry's mom:
  • He looks for me when I'm not holding him or interacting with him.
  • I teach him stuff, like how to say "mama" (yeah, okay, so it might be more like he says, "mamamamamamamaaaaa")
  • I can make him laugh.
  • When he's really tired he'll make a certain noise. I'll hold him close to my chest and he'll push away from me, look me in the face, make the noise, give me a little grin, and then take a dive back into my chest, falling asleep before his head makes contact.
  • He likes to play with my face. Tonight he had a death grip on my nose. I couldn't stop laughing so he thought it was fun. Thank god I cut his fingernails earlier today. Ouch!
  • Making plans for the two of us.
  • Watching him watch the world.
  • Being able to understand his cues. Tired. Hungry. Need to have quiet time. Ready to rock out on the jumperoo. Need hugs.
  • Singing to him before putting him to bed.
  • Every night right before I kiss him goodnight and leave him to fall asleep, I tell him one thing I especially loved about the day with him and I tell him one thing I wish for him for the next day.
This kid rocks.
